Medical security in Japan significantly increased with the start of a system of health insurance for the whole nation in 1961. However, health care coverage for the aged was treated lightly in this system. Thus, local public bodies adopted a system taking over elderly patients' coverage. The government in 1973 started this system of provision for medical costs for the aged. The system of provision for medical costs for the aged was an addition to the system of health insurance and gave priority to medical care through medical insurance. Although the adoption of this system for the aged was certainly a great step for coverage, it also caused many problems. Additionally, it brought up a controversy over the role of medical care at public expense again. This study focused on the system of provision for medical costs for the aged and examined its structure, priority of health insurance, takeover of elderly patients' pay, payment at piece rate, specification of diseases, and extension of objects. Furthermore, it studied the role of medical care at public expense and highlighted the system as another system of new medical care at public expense.
